Quite right

It was fascinating to be at Nordholz for 2 reasons one the it was the
original zeppelin base but secondly it shows that for a time the German
maritime effort was based on UK airframes . My father worked on the fuel
systems for Gannets so it was even more interesting to find a gannet engine
"wrong way up " displaying its Dowty Fuel Systems fuel pump for all the
world to see for a change



cheers
